best option is a group booking with an organiser,they usually reserve you a garage out when you do it that way.
Yesterday we was with some exotic bike hire company ,i kept pestering them and borrowing their tools ,when kwacky shouted at them to ask if they want any cake it made me laugh ,their faces were priceless :) we werent quite as serious as they were

It's always nice to go sailing past a £25k blinged up track only supersports bike when you're on your £4k piece of road kit.

Yes there were lots of expensive bikes but a lot of road bikes more than I thought would be there and one of the fastest lads there was on a road bike. It was a fun day out and I'm so excited (that may have shown) about next week.

I've had an email with my times. Best was a 2 mins 2 seconds. Pretty disappointing.

Oh well, I got home safely.
